Step 5: assemble

as the title says a simple bedframe that i came up with to raise my memory foam mattress topper off the floor slightly.
when designing this i had a couple ideas in mind:
i wanted no hardware so it was easy to assemble and disassemble
and i wanted to make it out of simple materials like 2x4 and just a single sheet of 4x8 plywood

Step 1: layout

using Adobe Illustrator
I started with a rectangle the size of my mattress and a 4x8 rectangle
first i wanted to figure out how to cut my plywood into as few pieces as
possible to cover the area of my mattress.
Then I chose the placement of my 2x4s and the dowel holes to keep
the plywood from sliding around.
